In response to "I (blind optimism again) think the tactic of Sanders remaining on the ballot to influence the platform gives the bros a buy-in for the Democrats -- nm" by crash davis

Potentially. At a minimum, it allows him to try to influence the platform like in 2016 without dragging the race out. -- (edited)

That's the main reason he stayed in through the end of the race in 2016 I think, to influence the platform and how the nomination works (e.g. superdelegates).

I think he sees the impact that dragging out an inevitable race had and is avoiding doing it again.
